It's here! It's finally here! After a year of waiting and wishing it's time for BIRTHDAY BASH 2011!

This is probably the most exciting thing I do on my blog. It's 31 days of giveaways, author interviews, guest posts, and virtual CAKE! Yup. That's right. There will be cake. The whole blog has been totally birthday-ified! And I'm so excited.

This year we have enough giveaways to have one almost EVERY SINGLE DAY! SO MANY chances to win, brought to you by some AMAZING bloggers and authors. There are SIXTEEN author interviews and some pretty sweet swag to go with. Here's all the information you're going to need for the next month.

I've created a page that will be home base for the bash. The schedule, as well as links to all of the giveaways and interviews will be posted there. There is also a link to this page at the top of the blog.

The twitter hashtag for the bash is #SqueakyBirthday2011. You'll get extra entries in the giveaways for tweeting things with this hashtag.

There's a button! Here it is! In a lot of the giveaways you'll get +5 entries for adding this button to your sidebar. Just copy and paste the HTML in the box below!

You'll also get extra entries in quite a few contests for following the contest host blogs. So if you want to get ahead of the game, check out the various participating blogs on the page and follow them now!

I'm sorry to say that nearly all of the giveaways will be open to US only. The first giveaway (which will happen tomorrow!) is international, though! And it's one of the best giveaways (though they're all pretty awesome), so keep an eye out!

I think that's all the info you need for now. Again, the first giveaway/interview is TOMORROW! All giveaways will end on 9/21/1.

If you have any questions about the bash, or if you're just excited, please leave a comment!
